TL;DR: A strategy for synthesizing chiral gold nanoparticles that involves using amino acids and peptides to control the optical activity, handedness and chiral plasmonic resonance of the nanoparticles is developed and it is anticipated that this strategy will aid in the rational design and fabrication of three-dimensional chiral nanostructures for use in plAsmonic metamaterial applications.

TL;DR: Mapping of the FSTs on chromosomes revealed that T- DNA integration frequency was generally proportional to chromosome size, however, T-DNA insertions were non-uniformly distributed on each chromosome: higher at the distal ends and lower in regions close to the centromeres.

TL;DR: This review presents a comprehensive overview of the theoretical aspects of chirality in light, nanostructures, and nanosystems and their chiroptical interactions and describes the strong intrinsic and extrinsic chiral properties in plasmonic nanoparticle systems.

TL;DR: It is proposed that stress-responsive OsGSK1 may have physiological roles in stress signal-transduction pathways and floral developmental processes and be a functional rice orthologue that serves as a negative regulator of brassinosteroid (BR)-signaling.

TL;DR: Researchers in South Korea and the USA consider detailed theoretical and practical aspects of the interaction of light with materials whose topology influences the behavior of light waves, and discuss progress towards developing practical applications of topological photonics.
